Okay, my synopsis in a nutshell: The voice is addictive (extremely floral vocal frequency). Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Flauntness is yesterday's apparel. Over 9000!? Hand sign signaled to the illuminated (devilish hornishness seen in all previously wearisome selected famous "artists"). So called art, scripted. Inwardly containing absolute relative age, outwardly obvious, while externally flaunting an aged persona reluctantly. The end result, overall positivity loses in a "not so close" tertiary lamented fervor to the undefined pessimism. Slivers of cognition do show promise of a real light, lighting a path to reality, but stifled by a sick environment. Loss overall in comparison to culture or tradition or logos. Setting only holds significance if it is validated by someone tangentially accustomed to its atmosphere, not by anyone else. Non of these arguments scream out at me saying, "I know my fans" or "I am close". Speaking in the manner of "we" and not defining this term adds confusion, but I know what you meant. Those who did for you, while you did nothing (art). If I am wrong, then I am. If I am correct, then let it be so.

I love that she tells crazy fictional stories through song. Most songs are glorified mating songs 😂😂😂. But like to take an idea of what would be a horror movie and turn it into a song is way more badass.

Plus. You rarely ever can be " a role model" in that age especially when you barely sound like speaking English and getting thoughts together, childishly and clearly in a need of "a role model" herself. I dont know. Not my style but accept kids make music for kids. I like Singers.

People must use their brain and realize the magnitude of this interview. This woman openly admits that she writes about music for scenarios she never experienced and says it carelessly and insensitively to those youth who actually cry, plea and awe over this woman who testifies to being pretentious 😕. This is like a child who realizes that Santa Claus isn't real, Disney world is just a park, and the characters are men with costumes. It literally puts them back.😵 And this woman in absurd fashion said that women with strong personalities are hated 😮 So women who write about things they don't do are strong ???😕👈 10:25 😵 (wake up) I hope the youth wake up and smell the coffee.💪 Don't believe the hype, cause when you know better you do better 😎 Be true to every word and let them match every action🎬 😎✌
